Printing 

You can print using different methods: 

Your Nokia E90 Communicator comes with a built-in 

Bluetooth adapter. If your printer includes a compatible 

Bluetooth adapter, you can use a Bluetooth connection 

to print items from your Nokia E90 Communicator. 

If your printer includes an infrared port, you can print 

items from your Nokia E90 Communicator by using an 

infrared connection. 

If you have access to a wireless LAN (WLAN) with a 

print server or a network printer that is accessible 

through your wireless connection, you can print items 

through a wireless connection. 

Your Nokia E90 Communicator supports the LPR print 

protocol. For details on the protocols, refer to your

To use the LPR protocol, you need to know the 

following before printing: 

The IP address or DNS name of the printer. 

The user name. This is only needed if the printer 

requires it. 

The queue name. 

Refer to your printer documentation or contact your IT 

support for the necessary information. You can also 

print a configuration page from your printer, if your 

printer supports that option. 

To print an item: 

1 If necessary, activate a Bluetooth, infrared, or WLAN 

connection on your printer. For details, refer to your 

printer documentation.
